Mr. Popular or My Bestfriend

Chapter 7

I didn't know where I was going, all I knew was that I needed to get away from him; from anyone really because I think if I was near anyone then I'm afraid I might freak out at them for no reason.

As I'm running out I hear Toby's voice, "EM! EM WAIT!!" he yells desperately while trying to catch up to me. For a guy with a perfectly muscled body, he sure can't run as fast. Then he somehow ends up right by me. Neverr mindd...I think to myself in a high pitched girly voice.

"Em please stop!" I just keep on running until he grabs my hand and holds it tight; whoever thought he was so strong. Well I guess I can see why since his body development and everything... "Emily, please!" he's practically begging and he looks so cute.. NO EMILY, YOU'RE NOT GIVING INTO HIM; even though he has those big brown eyes and has that adorable expression he gets when-- "Emily!" He's very annoyed by this time, "Please!" I sigh heavily, "What?" "Can we talk... again?"

I make a move to check my phone with my free hand since I now remember that Toby is still holding my other hand but I realize that I handn't gotten it from his car. "Can we just go back to your car..?" I say while trying so hard not to look into his eyes so instead I look down at my shoes. "Fine but can we talk in the car?" he asks hopefully that all I wanna do is say yes.. but I don't. I just walk back towards Tims, not saying anything.

When we reached his car I was about to get in but he ran towards the door and opened it for me; motioning for me to get in. I just rolled my eyes and got in the car without saying a word. I disconnected my phone, grabbed my stuff  and was about to get out when I saw that the door was locked so i unlocked it and was about to get out for the second time when again the door immediately locked by itself.

"What the fuck is happening?!" I demanded. I was so fucking frustrated, I really just wanna walk back home, watch Netflix and probably make up an excuse as to why I wasn't at school before my mom comes home but obviously I couldn't do that since this damn car won't let me out! Wait a minute.. "Toby Fucking Murphy, let me the fuck out!" I hissed. I didn't know I was this mad, I guess what just happened turned me into this other Emily... "I'm sorry but we really have to talk!" he seriously says, "and I really have to go!" I reply still not wanting to look at him so I just try and get the door open.

I then feel his arms wrapping around me and grabbing my hands. His body was lightly pressed up against mine. He smelled like an evergreen forest; comforting yet irresistible. I looked down at our hands to try and distract myself but it only made things worse. His hands were on top of mine again but they were so warm against my skin. I wish he could hold my hand forever. I turned slowly to look at him and saw that he too was looking at our hands. I realize that our faces are inches apart and my heart starts pounding, all I want to do is lean in and feel his soft lips against mine. I instantly start blushing; I can tell that I probably look like a fucking tomato.

He then licks his lips which makes it even harder to resist my urge. I lightly bite on my lower lip realizing that my eyes absentmindedly drifted down to his lips. I force myself to look at him and see that he's looking right at me which makes me turn redder.

I turn back to the way I was the first time and let go of the door handle.  It seems like he doesn't wanna move but eventually decides to so he's slowly going back to how he was before. I take a couple deep breaths trying to calm my rapidly beating heart but its not helping as much. I sneakily take my IPhone and look at myself; happy that my face is returning to its original color.

Not knowing what else to do, I take a deep, ragged breath and turn to face Toby again. I find him sitting silently in his seat with a far away look on his face but I do notice that his cheeks are slightly red. I clear my throat because I don't know what else to do. He instantly snaps out of it and turns his attention to me.

"Well uhm.." I start to say, nervously but then he cuts me off, "So school or at your house?" "What..?" I ask a little confused. "Where do you wanna do it." he simple replies. "What the fuck Toby we're only--" "What the fuck no, ew no not that! I meant talk." he explains. "Oh." "God Em you have the dirtiest mind ever." he tells me like I don't already know. Out of the 3 of us, I know I have the dirtiest mind. "Take me home!" I demand. "Fine, but we're talking there then." he states, then he starts his car and focuses all his attention on the road.

Again there was awkward silence in the car so I decided to just take my phone out, plug mmy headphones in and jam to whatever was on. When I opened my phone I couldn't belive I had 10 messages from Amy, sighing loudly I started to read.

Hey Em where are you?

Em, 2nd period is about to start!

Hi Em do you know where Toby is?

Why aren't you answering me?

I'm getting really annoyed now Emily.

Are you and Toby together?

Hello Emily??

EMILY!!

I'm half-way through 2nd period and you' still didn't show up!

2nd period just ended and you're not here!!

Instead of replying I just ignored them and started listening to my music because I couldn't stand the silence. I wasn't really paying attention though because all I could think about what was just happened and how the hell we were supposed to talk if we couldn't talk now. Every so often though I would see Toby sneaking quick glances my way with a curious yet sad expression on his face. I honestly don't like how awkward we are but what am I supposed to do? No matter how hard I tried I couldn't just forget about the kiss. It was practically glued to my mind and it just wouldn't leave.

I wish he would just tell me how he feels or what's on his mind because he's become so confusing lately. I sneak a peak at him and notice that he's also looking at me. He still has that curious yet sad expression on his face which makes me frown a little. He turns back to the road but as he's turning around I see that he sighs softly. I' am so confused right now but don't know what to do. I hope that if we actually do talk at my place then either things would be a bit back to normal or less awkward. Either way, I just want my best friend back!

I'am thinking of finally texting Amy back because if I don't then I know she will become worried.

Hey Amy, sorry for not texting back but I was.. busy. Anyways yes I' am with Toby and I won't be coming back at school till tomorrow but he might. I'll talk to you later ok? See ya! (:

I sighed again. Guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens when we get to my house.
